International Neuroethics Society annual meeting

External Event - 10th to 11th Nov 2016

The 1.5-day Annual Meeting of the International Neuroethics Society will convene hundreds of renowned neuroethicists, bioethicists, neuroscientists, researchers, lawyers, philosophers, physicians, students, and other professionals to explore research and scholarship at the intersection of ethics and neuroscience.

The International Neuroethics Society is an interdisciplinary group of scholars, scientists, clinicians and other professionals who share an interest in the social, legal, ethical and policy implications of advances in neuroscience, whose mission is to promote the development and responsible application of neuroscience through interdisciplinary and international research, education, outreach and public engagement for the benefit of people of all nations, ethnicities, and cultures.

Taking place just prior to the 2016 Society for Neuroscience meeting, delegates could easily attend both conferences in the same trip.

Program highlights:

• Keynote lectures by Steve Hyman (Harvard/MIT) and Walter Koroshetz (NINDS)
• Panel discussion on "Deconstructing Therapeutic Neurotechnology 'Narratives': A Case Study of DBS for Depression"
• Panel discussion on "Mind-Brain and the Competing Identities of Neuroethics"
• Public lecture on "Meet Tomorrow's World: The Ethics of Emerging Technologies"
